EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "EYE EXAM, 1917" takes us back in time to a small school in Lawton, Oklahoma. The image captures a significant moment as school children eagerly await their eye exams at Washington School. Taken by the talented photographer Lewis Wickes Hine in 1917, this snapshot offers a glimpse into early medical practices. In the foreground of the photo, we see a group of young boys and girls patiently sitting on wooden benches while an attentive doctor examines their eyes one by one. The serious expressions on their faces reveal both curiosity and anticipation. The room's interior is simple yet functional, with an eye chart prominently displayed on the wall behind them. Hine masterfully captures this poignant scene using sepia tones that add depth and nostalgia to the image. Each detail tells its own story – from the worn-out clothes of these humble students to the dedication of both the doctor and teacher present in ensuring their well-being. As we reflect upon this historical moment frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of medical advancements and accessibility to healthcare for all. This photograph stands as a testament to Lewis Wickes Hine's ability to capture not only moments but also emotions through his lens.
